  the only revenue you will be ge-tting from me is for balls and the very infrequent equipment purchase.

  You will spend more in a week, than you would in RG's'/

  So I think WGT should count Match and Alt Shot games.

   

  Plus and minuses Lou.

   

  I/e you can' be "brought up" as a Pro to TP, if your Tour Master Partner carries you through a match.  Sure, there is something to say about a level XX -tier with 23 ranked rounds and 1300 AS games but how do yo decipher who is the real player?

  The player i mentioned earlier who i posted as being a sandbagger has actually be removed by wgt.

  Dont mess with me :)

  Here is a question and i cant seem to find the answer, Is sandbagging against the rules?

  Remember WGT allows this to continue, their rules allow these individuals to operate within their flawed system, time for change WGT??

  Played a level 90 Hack yesterday. Blew my fu...  min d!! Had all the best of clubs (r-11s, cleveland wedges, and the Z ball.)  I am still just a TM and was still giving up 60 plus yards on par FOURS! So not only is this the worst sandbagger I have seen, it has to be a multi player also. You do not even have to try to make Amature. LEVEL 90 HACK!!!!!

  Thats a good question, im not actually sure. but i think if you win a lot of big credit tourneys and manipulate the system to do so, you will be removed. he may also have had more than 1 account, which is against the rules. 

  I think its good though that they did something it warns people not to do what he was doing in the future.

  I am sorry the wording in my last post was not acceptable and for that I apolgise but not for the sentiment behind it.

  News, Sept. 2010
  Note, these new Tiers & Levels are not designed to address sandbagging (players misrepresenting their ability to gain advantage in tournaments and match play). While these changes will help make sandbagging harder and discourage "quitting" in multi-player games, we're working on other improvements to address sandbagging by monitoring score histories and sandbagging behaviors, and addressing violations to our community policies more aggressively.

  
  

  I don't know if that qualifies as a "rule," but that's their policy. Complaining about specific players (like that L90 hack) in the forums is all well and good, but I would report them to WGT.

  I thought your wording was exceptional! Honest, well thought out, straight to the point with no punches pulled. I know you cannot do it yet, but the way things are headed here in the US, a green card will be good enough for a person to run for presidency. You sir have already got 1 vote here waiting on you!

  90

  

  Hack

  

  85.33                          I do not believe it gets any worse than this!! This person even has players thanking them for teaching them shots like the flop. Playing them is histerical .How would you like to reach a par 5 in ONE shot? I never thought I would see a hack with the R 11!!! But I guess this is what happens when they have even have a stroke game showing.
